Home/Tours/Colombia's Cities & Pacific Shores: From Medellin to Nuqui
About This Tour
A week pairing Medellín's transformed neighborhoods and street art with the wild, little-visited Pacific coast around Nuquí — humpback whales, hot springs, and Afro-Colombian villages. The entire trip is within Colombia, split between Medellín in the Andes and Nuquí on the Pacific coast, connected by a short domestic flight.
